Dear Members of the Fresh Produce Association of the Americas,
By now you have seen the news that the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 against the IEEPA tariffs, including those 25% tariffs paid briefly in 2025 on produce from Mexico.
FPAA earlier this year filed a suit on behalf of members in the Court of International Trade (CIT). Now, after the Supreme Court ruling, the CIT will vote to invoke a nationwide injunction against further collection of IEEPA tariffs. The CIT also would be expected to initiate a process for issuing refunds.
Your company is likely among the many FPAA companies who have indicated an interest in participating in the lawsuit to recover tariffs. As soon as more information is available, FPAA will issue instructions for you to recover tariffs paid, whether from Mexico or any other country, whether for fresh produce imported, or for any other goods used in your business which were subject to the tariffs.
If your company has not indicated an interest in the lawsuit, please contact amoore@thefpaa.com.
As more information becomes available, FPAA will issue updates.
Sincerely,
The FPAA Team
